i'm sorry i couldnt come to this......i was fixing a mates computer and i was buggered from the night before...looks like you all had a great time though. hopefully after suspension is fixed i will be able to compete in these....hehehe...

i shall post pictures up of my purchase tomorrow when i have them in the garage hehehehe...

you mean mine?.......detuned and running like a bucket of shit?

hehehe.....yes.....i will get around to calling mr bob up and asking him when he can do it.......that will be when the car goes off the road for a week or 2.....i may ask him to decomp the head as well......

i don't wish that i hadnt put the bigport on my motor.....as nick said in an earlier post tonight, they are better for forced induction cause of the bigger ports. just that if i stayed with the 5k or 4k head, i prolly wouldnt have had the ongoing problem with my valve stem seals.......i don't regret doing it.....cause its taught me to do things right the first time.

go for it.....i always love reading your posts.....hehehehe

nah i still like your old ones too....

test for Ignition Output: Hold medium wrench in one hand, Sears wrench preferred for accuracy of test 'cause other smooth wrenches are too slick for throwin'! With engine running', grab hold of the plug end of an ignition cable with the other hand and hold on tight! This will more than likely cause you to throw wrench! KV output is based on how far the wrench wuz thrown! 10 feet = approx. 10,000 volts 20 feet = approx. 15,000 volts 30 feet = approx. 25,000 volts Over 30 feet = Caution! Must be one of them new dis-is-it ignition systems, use bigger wrench and retest. Electricity will not usually hurt you, instead it is the back of your neck going through the hood latch that really ruins your day!! BWAHAHAHAHA........

meh. well when i take the head off next....i might invest in some.....after its decomped.

i got Rx2 as well once......stupid drunk bastards. took me 5 mins to convince him it was a corolla too.

COOL!.... FuLLi SiK BrO!..... hahahaha.....

Autogauge are another one. Made by Autometer, i have an EL oil gauge atm and its great.....better than the shitty one i bought from autobarn. go electrical, easier to setup i think. and better than mech. you can find some autogauges on ebay if you look.

i'm running a 411 lift cam, and i don't have double valve springs and have never hit valve bounce (its gone over 8200). so i don't really reckon you need them..... i actually agree with jamie on this.....bigports are overrated.

i once got the two mixed up and was supposed to be heading to willowbank.......lets just say that it was just before marburg i relised that i was going the wrong way.....lucky i didnt have to go right back to the jundtion and found a shortcut.

........mmmm....sprinter.... sell it to me..... for $1

the lifters in my engine are Chev lifters. just match the size with the original one.

i'll get back to you tonight on that one... i'll ask my brother cause he actually ordered them

yes....the 5K does have hydro lifters, HOWEVER. you can change them quite easily to solid using holden 6 lifters, you will need to change the rocker gear over to 4K (so you can adjust them), and probably sort out some shorter pushrods. i ended up using datsun a 12 pushrods, that was with my 3k bigport head. 5K Engine Transplant thats my engine that is currently in the car atm.....more to be done on it yet. Z|gen: yeah mate that would be great if you could get a couple.....i'm about to start experimenting.

hey warwick.....if you come across another tiwn carb manifold.....let me know.....as i am after one.....i don't want the one that is sidedraft either.

hehehe.... they did that to me too......bloody fireman cutting up a perfectly good corona shell..,we actually asked if we could take parts.....they said if we wanted them we could take them but only if we could carry them....DoH!

justin is correct. also, you can get different 4k pistons to change te compression ratio. but yes.....only the 3K heads were bigport 3k and 4k are interchangable with most parts. if you find a 3K bigport make sure to change the valves over to 4k ones, other wise you will probably have seal issues.

i got no idea man..... thats a tough one..... i'm gunna guess and say... B. Mia's elbow. if i'm wrong.....i'll send you 5 cds to fill up....hehehehe.

should i pm you my answer?

mate.....i know you're new and everything....and i welcome you to the board. however. please use it next time as there is a topic with the same name as this.

the torque wrench would be a d. 3/4" f@$k.....how i knew that i have no idea...
